RELEASE for S3 Mini
CyanogenMod 12.1
New stable release (20150912) of CM12.1 for S3 Mini is available!
Please, test it and report any bugs!
For flashing Lollipop, we recommend you to install our TWRP recovery (available on Download page)!
Do full backup before installation and wipe data/cache (factory reset) after installation if you don’t updating from older CM12.0 release.
You need to perform a wipe if you’re migrating from software different than CM12.0!
You can get it on our DOWNLOAD page.
Changelog:
- CM sources updated to latest version
- fully tested, stable release
- fixed issues with calls – dialer crashes and reduced delay on incoming calls
- remade build tree due to changes in CM
- natively lollipop-way offline charging (temporary doesn’t display animation, but works well, wip)
- system repatched
- toolchains update
- Odin package update
Features
- RIL (phone/SMS/3G)
- audio (both speakers/headphones/microphone)
- Wi-fi
- Bluetooth 4.0 with LE support A2DP
- GPS/Glonass/A-GPS
- sensors
- compass
- camera (taking photos and videos)
- video playing
- 2D/3D HW Acceleration
- all native tethers (Wifi/BT/USB)
- Google Play
- CPU sleep mode
- MTP
- ADB
- no tearing
- tripple buffering
- external storage
- f2fs filesystem support
- offline charging
Issues
- video taken by stock camera app is green, but some apps like Camu taking correct videos without any issues
- less than 2% of users are reporting issues with mobile data – just add new APN manually with settings proper for your provider and apply it to make 3G working
I’d be glad, if you shared links to our download page, instead of direct links to download.
Also would be great, if you wouldn’t create the mirrors 😉
Thanks.
If somehow you’ll find a bug, use our bugtracker if you want to report it.

Robbe,
I still use 08/16. Tried the new one and the ROM doesn’t work as well as expected. Most people are going to OmniRom website which hasn’t updated. XDA-Developers site has the latest ROM.
I´m using opengapps, never had any problem with it.
Really u dont have the camera bug?
the video camera not working
New vulnerability detected http://click.xda-developers.com/api/click?format=go&jsonp=vglnk_144210205027213&key=f0a7f91912ae2b52e0700f73990eb321&libId=iehq9xmq01000n4o000DAfv63kpw7&loc=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.xda-developers.com%2Fshowthread.php%3Ft%3D2666235&v=1&out=https%3A%2F%2Fgroups.google.com%2Fforum%2F%23!topic%2Fandroid-security-updates%2F1M7qbSvACjo&ref=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.xda-developers.com%2Fgalaxy-s3-mini%2Forig-development&title=%5BROM%5D%5B4.4.4%5D%20OmniROM%20for%20GT-I8190%20S3%20Mini%20%7C%20Samsung%20Galaxy%20S%20III%20Mini%20%7C%20XDA%20Forums&txt=Nexus%20Security%20Bulletin%20-%20September%202015
Camu doesnot works well for me. Tell me some good apps which takes video with zero lag
Try VivaVideo, it doesn’t lag for me.
VivaVideo low resolution: 640×380.
try videocam illusion
still 640×460 resolution, useless
Turn off HD Video at Camu-Settings then there are no lags during the recording
Hi novafusion, how to using CM 12.1 latest version update without losing data, I’m using CM 12.1 previous update release, I want update with this latest version. is it possible and can you explain how do that? Thanks!!
Why i have an “error execute binary updater from zip” i’m migrating from release 150901
Now its time to work on sd card support. BTW Great Job!!!
I might try this release. Any advice on bug reporting past stating what the problem is?
I might have a clue at why the video is not working properly. I installed Cameringo Lite and it gave me an error while taking video: “Unexpected problem. Code: EVF”. I don’t know what this means but it might give a hint to the developers. Unfortunately I cannot post to the xda-developers page (insufficient privileges)
Hi, Novafusion team Facebook application installs very difficult and error to access Google Play..please fix this..thank you
Guys xposed for lollipop is available for download at xda
how is the battery life here?
Thank you,
the possibility works, use of WiFi-Direct?
the battery draining is too fast while wifi on. even more than 3g. cause it seems phone always searching wifi points even it connected! need to be fixed.
in wifi settings
change google scanning always available to never
and wifi sleep to none
there is a build.prop tweak to fix this but i can not remember what it is
How do I fix the error executing updater binary in zip problem on my phone? Every one or two maclaw ROMs I try to flash get this with me on TWRP, I don’t know how to fix it, can anybody help?
WLAN is really weak…
My phone reboots, reboots and REBOOTS! I cant use my phone over 1 minute when using battery. When charging, it goes offline charging screen. What can i do?
Use OmniLP or SlimLP. Cyanogenmod not stable according to me.
Did you trued to make a clean install? I have no issues with this release. It is really smooth and responsive.
I have googled and i haven’t found any way to fix it except factory reset and make a clean install as you said. I’ll reply has it worked or not. Note: somebody said that google apps may cause this bug. Any stable google apps do you have?
if this happens with over 20% battery then
wipe phone through recovery
and clean install this rom
and install gapps if you want
Make a clean wipe, installed cm’s zip with Nova’s TWRP, but it’s the same. But I think random reboots only happens when using Internet(not on background:)) ) when not charging. If I’m charging phone, it goes to offline charge screen when over %80 charge. (Then I plugged off the charger, opening but my phone says it has 5 to 20 (it changes) percent charge. Is it normal?) And any idea about my problem?? :((
Add DT2W and it would be wonderfull
thanks novafusion this is the best rom to samsung S3 mini and try all roms, my bug:
-videocam take green, but videocam ilusion work.
-offiline charge no animation, but charging.
-Facebook, no update
sorry my english
funny and sad at the same time becuaseS3 mini is not the only device that suffers from scumbag XDA developers like those,At least it is not the only device after all :/
I can’t download or install Facebook app. Is that a CM bug or Facebook bug? ^^
Try installa FB app from Aptoide store.
*INSTALL
Sorry.
Does OTG come in the feature?
Try install FB app with Aptoide store.
The Facebook app is huge and resource hungry. I’m using the official Facebook Lite which works pretty well and is very fast.
Download it via the Aptoide-store
it’s a CM bug as far as I know, they once even tried to fix it but it doesn’t work again
How can I fix the clock app crashes?
Hello,
very good work, i really love it!
But this morning the battery lost 15% in the first 1:45 hour.
And i habe a 3500mAh -battery….
Good work but still waiting for otg to release in lollipop
I mean to say otg in cm 12.1 for s3 mini
Does anybody else have issues with the clock app? By the way, Youtube app works on this rom 🙂
WiFi automatically disconnects when I stop using the phone (I have “Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep” in Always). Its very frustrating
On *longpress* Home button, after few times, screen becomes black with just available to open top menu and *turnoff* button menu
Also while this bug i saw few times alert about *app not answer*
Changing *Home* button *longpress* default action, does not helping, even if chage to *do nothing*
I see that bug since about three last release versions, include this too =(
I guess some bug in *Trebuchet* app;
screeshot

Good job guys, thank you. No more problems with everyday use. No more screen tearing. Very smooth and responsiv. I really like this release. Your constantly fixing bugs, only the camera bug is slightly annoying. Already looking forward to USB on the go :). Keep on your great work.
Facebook update fails to install (again), watching Videos is glitchy, after trying to skip a part of it, the speed goes 2x and sound stops playing, both in Internet Browsers and watching videos from mobile.
Fix these please 🙂
Notification ringtone not working.
Have any of you tried CarbonLP? Is the battery better than this?
It was set to “unknown” for me. Change it and it works.
Change what to “unknown”?
It showed “unkown” as my actual notification sound in the settings. So i set it to the old one and everything worked again.
does it say none when selecting a notification sound??
I have troubles with the phone calls, nobody can hear me and i cant hear the person who is calling me.
Please add the correct button backlight support. The buttons light up on every touch in the screen. Thanks nova, great work!
My aplicattions of games don’t work like modern combat or asphalt 8 and the camera videos with camu run very slow please fix it for instal again this rom because i like this rom so much but the bugs make me uninstall it ;(

Delete a few thinks on your mobile to clear your internal memory.
I am unable to find latest S3 mini build (CyanogenMod 12.1–20150912) on download page. Last build showing is 20150906. I found one dropdown for selecting a device. And there is one more option for older release. Someone please guide me in finding the build.
I try to set 2G network, but still showing 3g connection .
you need do it twice. That works then.
TweetCaster twitter client does not work in cm12.1 correct please.
low in call volume and weak wifi signal
I am getting “Sim Card not detected” after updating this ROM….
Why the video taken camera is bad yet? I haven’t updated to lollipop just for that reason, :/
Hi, ROM performs well on the phone. Unfortunately, it often reboots … Quite often during charging.
How can i use 2g internet conection?
I seem to have a problem with my phone having a tendency of not detecting my sim card out of the blue, I always have to reboot in order for it to detect again, I especially hate it when I’m about to take a call or downloading something, anyone else experiencing this problem, or found a solution?
Taking Videos from Camera still NOT working
Batery drain too fast! At least in batery % at top dock. Actualy, it last same as older roms, but it reports a consume higher than real, staying in 1% for hours.
Best release ever. No issues except vcam
Native clock app is not working. It stops when you click it. I am using another similar app to workaround it.
